Why we cook at home rule
(lemmy.cafe)
Internet nerds teaching fellow nerds how to cook at home, and make higher-quality food than garbage in a wrapper or a box they're currently wasting money on. In our age of hyperinflation, shrinkflation, and general economic collapse, knowing how to cook at home is more vital than ever.
Share recipes, cooking guides, shopping and savings tips, and let's help our fellow nerds save some mother-freaking money. Feel free to vent about skyrocketing food prices here too. Share evidence of hyperinflation, shrinkflation, etc. when you come across it.
RULES:
This isn't "food", it's one highly advertised menu item at a fast food restaurant. Not "a sack of rice", but a Mcdonalds sandwich.
